We've partnered with Google to bring Google Wallet credentials to businesses
This is another step towards a future where identity verification is finally fast, seamless, and no longer depends on users uploading photos of physical documents.
Google Wallet already lets users store verified identity credentials issued by governments, banks, or Google itself on their phones.
Using our OmniID platform, businesses can now accept all these credentials, including Google ID Pass, the digital passport available in various countries around the world, including the United States, United Kingdom, Brazil, Singapore, and Taiwan. When a business requests verification, the user can share only the attributes needed, such as a name or age confirmation, directly from their device.
OmniID platform connects businesses to a wide range of identity verification methods, including Google Wallet, government eIDs, EUDI wallets, mobile driving licenses, bank-based verification, and biometric checks. The platform automatically selects the most suitable method based on the user’s location and device, while providing fallback options for those who do not yet have a digital credential.
Google Wallet is already home to verified identity credentials for users across the world. Our goal has always been to make those credentials accessible to businesses that need them for KYC/AML processes, without requiring a separate integration for every digital wallet or credential type. Our collaboration with Google is a major step toward that.
The timing reflects a structural shift in how identity is issued and verified. EU member states must make digital wallets available to citizens by December 2026 under eIDAS 2.0 regulation.
Twenty-one US states currently issue mobile driving licenses, and more are likely to follow this year. As governments and institutions issue credentials directly to more people's personal devices, the share of users who can verify their identity digitally will grow, thus reducing overall reliance on the document uploading and manual review processes still driving up KYC costs.
